Should the US bailout the big three automakers?

[RedBarchetta]

Back in 1985, working part-time while attending college and in need of a credit card to handle my gasoline purchases, I summoned the two stations closest to my apartment, Shell and Union 76 (now part of ConocoPhillips). Shell flat out turned me down and Union 76 gave me my first true credit card. They came through when I really needed the gas card and I have been a loyal customer ever since then (says it on my card). As for Shell? Haven't bought a drop of juice from them EVER and don't plan to. Have even driven out of my way and passed a Shell station to get fuel somewhere else.

What does this story have to do with the Big 3? After Chrysler so stupidly spent MY money (okay, OUR money) on thank you ads, note here for everyone to see that I WILL NEVER EVER BUY ANOTHER CHRYSLER PRODUCT FOR THE REST OF MY DAYS. Nardelli can kiss my ass.

Honey, it's time to place your '05 Pacifica on Craigslist. I don't even want the thing in the garage any longer.

Dang, I feel better already!
